Oh god, that reminds me of something that happened a few years ago!
there’s a road in my area that is the only road that leads to a college, so it was pretty much the road with the heaviest traffic in the area, it was in bad condition for years and there were always talks of fixing that road. Covid comes around and the college is going completely remote for about a year and a half, which is a perfect time to work on the road but no work is done, on the first day the college reopens they start to work on the road.
I don’t know who is supposed to schedule road work, but it always seems like it’s either not at all on a really bad road for years or starts at the worst possible time.
I-75 in GA down by Warner Robins has been scraped up by road work crews making the road extremely bumpy and dangerous. They just left it and it’s now sat for almost a year without being touched.
It’s like they scraped it up and left it just to ruin people’s tires and suspension.
I read that in the sense that they’re too conventional looking for what is a pink acid trip around a mass produced toy doll with an impossibly shaped body.
In fact of all 4 that’s the only critique which is actually about the movie (notice how all the others are raging against some general fantasy they have in their minds, which they associated with the movie) and it even uses language that’s not typical of the far-right crowd (how many far right nutters have you ever seen casually mentioning experiences from taking some kind of drug even in a methaphorical sense?!)
I suspect that it might actually be a legic critique, on top of which some people are projecting their own internal prejudices (because it was mixed with and presented as something from a far-right raging nutter) without actually doing your own personal analysis of it (aka thinking for yourself)
It’s a bit hypocrite (or lacking self-awareness) to criticise others for their unthinking prejudiced take on something whilst having an unthinking prejudiced take on something.
I mean, a liitle thinking about it by yourself easilly leads to the same conclusion as the OP on the other 3 (clearly the product of brainless rightwinger fanatics) it’s only this one that in style and content seems off from that, unless you’re forcing certain possible but not logical interpretations of the meaning of its contents to force it to fit a prejudgement, which, IMHO, is dangerously parallel to very same mental processes that lead the far-right nutters to think this movie is about “spreading gayness”.
No saying that I agree or disagree: all I’m saying is that this 4th comment in style and substance does not seem to be in the same bucket as the other 3.
I had this for Sega Saturn. Near the end of the game one puzzle would generate a screen with a bunch of numbers and letters and crash. I thought it was part of the game until a walkthrough showed I was doing it right but something was broken on my disc. I still loved the game even though I couldn’t progress passed that point.
There is a sex scene, and yeah, it actually contributes to the plot of the film. It’s because it’s not so much just a movie about the atom bomb as it is a film about Oppenheimer.
Heh, yeah. In fairness though Oppenheimer’s affairs with communists did contribute to his security clearance being revoked, so it is actually somewhat relevant here.
Hmm I suppose, I just feel like sex is a private part of peoples lives and I’m not really interested to see the intimate side of most people, including him. But as another commentrr said, it was quite important to the plot in the particular case of Oppenheimer
Biographies should start at conception really, it’s the only logical choice.
We should rethink a lot about documentaries in general, after all
It’s very rare to have a life without toilet breaks, so ¯*(ツ)*/¯
A lot of great ideas must have been made there of which it is not generally known, it is up to documentaries to address this lack of valuable knowledge
Lots of movies suffer this issue tbh. Nolan isn’t unique. Why does a small underground movie about a day in the life of a plumber need sex scenes or a pizza delivery man? Makes it impossible to find a relatable protagonist tbh.
I don’t think it’s fair of car drivers to complain about incoveniences when they’re already poisoning the air for the sake of convenience. Just take the bus lmao. Ride a bike lol. Don’t complain when you’re already taking the easy way out. Spoiled princesses tbh
I don’t know why one implies the other doesn’t exist. The fact is there are a bunch of MRA dudes very pissed off that a movie about a toy they likely never played with dares to be in theaters. And the things they say about it are amusing.
It’s really not. Especially considering how feminists are always (oftentimes rightfully) complaining about gender assumptions, they definitely shouldn’t do that themselves. It wasn’t even necessary, “from furious men” could’ve been removed altogether and the comment would’ve conveyed the same feeling, without the pointless sexism.
Also yes, it’s Lemmy Shitpost and the post fits, I was “complaining” about the original author.
It sort of dose, Women are just as vile at this stuff, and sometimes more so, as men.
Take the calls for death to trans peoples, a lot of that is coming from women, self avowed feminists no less, and we have had a collective blind spot to these people for so long because ironically the Feminist movement fell into reinforcing gender stereotypes
